2n day of the vacation - Heavy Rain (PS3)


The second day was spent playing "Heavy Rain". It's a sort of interactive movie, where the player doesn't have to do much, and it's mainly QTE that decide whether you succeed or not. The story shown is about a loving father trying to rescue his son, and people trying to catch a serial killer.

The story itself is pretty good-looking, but the ending doesn't seem to be very logical. The behaviour of the person, that turned out to be a killer, throughout the game didn't suggest such an outcome. But I've had several nice hours of guessing - and I finally didn't guess. I just don't get how such a highly positive character could turn out a cullion.

The game looks great, especially taking into account the year that it's been created. Bodies, faces, the smallest details like eyelaches, stubble, small cracks on the lips - all these details look created with so much love and care that I can't even imagine, and I've never seen a game that showed so much attention to the smallest details. It's completely amazing.

But the controls are just pain in the ass =\

1st day of the vacation - Journey (PS3)

While I'm on a sort of vacation, I decided to spend each day exploring new games - one per day. Actually, I've had much more today, but the game of the day is definitely...

There isn't much to tell about this game, but everything is exclusively positive. The only thing you need to know is that the game is awesome. But it's awesome in some different way that other games might be. It's not actually a thing to play, it's a thing to feel.

The simplest story without a single word spoken or written, it tells about a human heading their way to the top of a high mountain. And they go and go and go again - and suddenly they dive into the air and flies like a little fuzz surrounded by swarms of glowing snippets - and again they land on a mound of sparkling sand or crispy snow and... and that's all. And that's so beautiful, so stunning, hypnotizing, without a room for banality, that you fall in love with this game right away.

If you sometimes feel the need to see something magical, romantic and whole-hearted, then you'll definitely enjoy those couple of hours spent on the Journey.

Pyramidhead - The Making Of



Let's try learning more about each other, dear anonymous. I'd prefer to start at telling you a cool story about how my bf and I tried to make a Silent Hill cosplay.

Hi there!

Greetings, visitors!

Hesitating for quite a long time, I finally decided that I really need to make a blog, because my need to tell this Universe about everything that's going on in my head has grown so huge that none of these social networks can contain it.

The first thing you gotta know is that I am a gamer. Not the one of those guys spending whole their life in all sorts of goddamned MMOs, but pretty addicted. The second one is that I am a girl. Yeah, one of those fat chicks that wouldn't ever get a boyfriend (I'm actually not like that, but you may feel comfortable to think so, I don't really care).

So this Internet-sandbox is going to be the place where i'll post my game reviews, cosplay photos and other hand-made stuff. Feel free to read and comment.

Yours,
E.
